A records (the GLUE) - DNS question

Avatar
  • Answered
In the process of switching my sites over to my new VPS. After I switched the dns in Godaddy to the new nameservers
ns1.inmotionhosting.com, ns2.inmotionhosting.com I noticed propagation was taking longer than usual. I ran my domain through INTODNS.com and now I see the following errors (on all sites):

Looks like the A records (the GLUE) got from the parent zone check are different than the ones got from your nameservers. You have to make sure your parent server has the same NS records for your zone as you do.I detected some problems as follows:
For ns1.inmotionhosting.com the parent reported: ['216.193.208.42'] and your nameservers reported: ['74.124.210.242']
For ns2.inmotionhosting.com the parent reported: ['216.193.208.42'] and your nameservers reported: ['70.39.150.2']

and

ERROR: One or more of your nameservers did not respond:
The ones that did not respond are:
216.193.208.42

before I just add A records I thought I would post the question first? What should I do?

Thanks

Hello, Thank you for your question about the Glue records. The glue records do not normally need to be set if you're using our default name server (ns1.inmotionhosting.com and ns2.inmotionhosting.com). The IP address you're using is for a totally different type of account (reseller account). Please make sure to use the default IP addresses as per the article here. If you have any further questions or comments, please let us know. Regards, Arnel C.
